Minister for Magic

Septimus Malfoy, a member of the powerful and wealthy Malfoy family, was an enormously influential wizard at the Ministry in the day, and Minister Osbert was, during the course of his tenure, influenced to some degree by Malfoy's interests. Many claimed that Minister Osbert was little more than a puppet of Malfoy's, who would have been the de facto head of the Ministry.[2]

By 1798, Osbert either left the office or had already left the office, as Artemisia Lufkin, the first woman ever to hold the post, became Minister for Magic.[3]
